"Why?"
Nian Shilan looked at Zhu Xi puzzledly.
In fact, he wasn't really puzzled. He could vaguely guess why, but Nian Shilan couldn't show it.
"Your Majesty, I will definitely know in the future that the Queen Mother is doing this for your own good."
Zhu Xi couldn't say more, so Nian Shilan stopped asking.
"Thank you, Queen Mother. Thank you, aunt. I will send someone to call the imperial doctor soon, and then close the palace door."
Seeing that Nian Shilan was so sensible, Zhu Xi felt relieved.
As soon as Zhuxi left, Songzhi hurried in.
"Empress, should we go to Shoukang Palace?"
"not going."
Nian Shilan quickly thought of a solution. The Queen Mother said that she would not be allowed to leave the palace. She was probably afraid that Prince Dun Fujin would ask him to come over, or he would be caught by Prince Dun and threaten his brother. So she must protect herself.
"Songzhi, go to the Taiyuan Hospital and invite Wen Shichu over. Tell him that I'm ill. Then close the palace door so that no one can be seen. Then call Zhou Ninghai in."
Songzhi looked at Nian Shilan's expression and thought she was really uncomfortable. She didn't even have time to ask why, so she hurried out.
Zhou Ninghai came in after a while.
"Empress, please find me."
"Go to Yanqing Palace immediately and tell Concubine Duan that no matter what happens, don't leave the palace today. It's best to stay behind closed doors to thank guests."
Nian Shilan thought that Qi Yuebin's family was also a military general, so just in case, it was best not to have anything happen to him at this time.
"Hey, I'll go right away."
After Zhou Ninghai finished speaking, he left.
Nian Shilan thought that in her previous life, the emperor's capture of Prince Dun went smoothly, but now that there are so many variables, she always feels that something will happen.
When Songzhi came back with Wen Shichu, Nian Shilan was sitting there just fine.
"Mother, Master Wen is here."
Songzhi warned carefully.
"Master Wen, I caught a cold last night and am feeling unwell. The cold came very quickly and the contagion is strong. To ensure safety, I refuse all visits. Do you understand what I mean?"
Nian Shilan didn't use Wen Shichu to diagnose his pulse at all, and told him the result he wanted in the first place.
Wen Shichu was not stupid. The imperial doctor who originally took care of Yikun Palace was not him, but Nian Shilan had someone call him over. Isn't this obvious?
"Wei Chen understands."
"You are responsible for taking care of concubine Hui's fetus, right?"
Nian Shilan said knowingly: "The sudden onset of wind and cold in this palace shows that it is a really bad day. Please remind Hui and Guan to move around less these days and rest more in your palace."
"Wei Chen will bring it to you."
Wen Shichu lowered his head and stepped back.
After doing all this, Nian Shilan didn't feel at ease.
Although she didn't want to suspect anyone, if someone insisted on visiting her at this time, then his purpose would be somewhat obvious.
There was no movement in the palace all day, and it was only at night that Nian Shilan felt that something was wrong.
"Songzhi, please don't let anyone in the palace move around."
Nian Shilan stood in the room, always feeling that it was a little too quiet outside.
I don't know why, but Nian Shilan's heart was in chaos.
"Zhou Ninghai, go and bring Shu Yue and Minghui over and feed the two children some soothing soup."
Although Nian Shilan knew that the child was too young to drink the soothing soup, there was nothing he could do now.
Zhou Ninghai was a little surprised when he heard this: "Your Majesty, Princess Minghui is still too young."
"Of course I know, but there is nothing we can do now. Go quickly, I'm afraid it will be too late."
Nian Shilan's tone couldn't be better now, but she always felt that time was running out.
"Songzhi, go change into the clothes of a young palace maid."
Although Songzhi didn't know what it meant, she hurried over.
After a while, Zhou Ninghai brought the two children.
"Your Majesty, I have given soup to both little princesses, but not too much."
Zhou Ninghai said softly.
"Okay, you and Songzhi will take them to An Chang's place. Remember, no matter what happens, if I don't come to find you personally, don't come out. If anything happens, please don't come out. Don’t come out, including An Changzai, do you understand?”
When Songzhi heard that Nian Shilan asked her to leave, she immediately knelt down and refused: "Your Majesty, I won't leave. I want to be with your Majesty. You can let Lingzhi take the princess away, but I can't leave you."
"Songzhi, listen to me,"
Nian Shilan pulled Songzhi and said, "I know your heart, but besides you and Zhou Ninghai, I don't feel safe giving your child to anyone. Do you know? It's too late before it's too late."
Zhou Ninghai also knew that this was not the time to be pretentious, so he pulled Songzhi up and left with the two children.
Nian Shilan originally did not want to send her child to An Lingrong, but Zhen Huan is the most favored now. If there is a change in the palace, she will definitely not be able to escape. Shen Meizhuang is pregnant again, so it's not good for her to worry about it.
So An Lingrong became Nian Shilan's only choice.
She was not very favored, and lived in a remote place, so no one could think of her for a while.
At midnight, there was chaos outside.
It is impossible to say that I am not afraid.
But Nian Shilan knew that he couldn't mess up. As long as the emperor was fine, they would be traitors and traitors.
"You are a good lady, there is someone knocking on the door outside asking to see you."
The person who came in was Zhou Ninghai's apprentice Xiao Lizi.
"Just say that I have taken a rest and will not see guests."
Nian Shilan knew this little plum's loyalty and cleverness, so it made sense for Zhou Ninghai to send him to guard the door.
"That's what the slave said, but the people outside said that someone should come and let them know. If they don't see you, they will break in."
Xiao Lizi said a little anxiously: "My wife, why don't you leave through the back door first? The slaves can resist for a while."
But Nian Shilan knew that she couldn't leave.
"No, if they can get to the entrance of Yikun Palace so wildly, then they will definitely not be able to get through the back door."
Nian Shilan calmed down instead. From this point of view, the queen really couldn't escape the relationship.
"Your Majesty, there is a secret door in our palace. It is in the backyard and cannot be seen from the outside, so there should be no one there."
Xiao Lizi whispered to Nian Shilan, "This is what the master specifically told me when he left."
Nian Shilan was shocked. She didn't expect that Zhou Ninghai was really thoughtful. He thought he had built this door just in case, but he didn't expect it to be used.
"Okay, then you can take advantage of the chaos and get out of there later. The guards outside Qianli Pond are all our people. The guards who want to be on duty tonight have also been controlled. You go to their resting place to find someone and ask them to come over immediately. Then go Go to the Yangxin Palace to find the emperor and tell him about the situation here."
Nian Shilan quickly said to Xiao Lizi: "It would be best if you can get out smoothly. If something changes midway, there is no need to resist. Your own life is the most important."
